Lynn Adame

VICE-CHAIR, DIRECTOR

Lynn Adame is a Colorado native who has called Loveland home for over 50 years. She is a local creative who enjoys exploring whatever piques her interest—whether it’s sewing, painting, or battling with yarn (her kryptonite). Tell her something can’t be done, and she’ll find a way to do it anyway.

She is a founding member of Heart and Sol, a local non-profit dedicated to celebrating the beauty of diversity by creating brave spaces where all are welcome. Lynn manages the organization’s social media and is always seeking ways to bridge gaps and strengthen community connections.

With over 20 years of public service with the City, Lynn remains deeply committed to serving her community. Above all, she is most proud to be a doting Buela and Madre.
